<p>Our current support to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) supports
the delivery of surgical equipment, drugs and disposables and physical rehabilitation
services to around 4,000 Gazans rendered disabled following the recent surge in violence.
To help disabled people regain mobility the ICRC will also continue to support the
Artificial Limb Centre in Gaza. Our support in the longer term looks to address the
underlying causes of humanitarian strife and raise living standards by focussing on
increasing trade and job creation, enabling greater movement and access for people
and goods, and enhancing the supply of electricity and clean water. Nevertheless,
the UK stands ready to provide further urgent health assistance in Gaza, if required.</p>
